Picturing Footscray Photography Prize

Picturing Footscray is a free open-entry photography prize that has been celebrating Melbourne's unique inner-west suburb of Footscray since 2016, documenting a period of significant change.

In 2020, this is particularly poignant. Against the backdrop of home-isolation and a global pandemic, life as we know it has changed and we’re adapting with it. Welcome to Picturing Footscray, virtually!

The Prize invites photographers of all capabilities to capture the essence of this great location during this tumultuous time, with the added challenge of respecting physical distancing and self-isolation requirements.

Prizes:

First prize: $3000 + $300 Ernest Studio voucher

Second prize: $1000 + $250 Prism Imaging voucher

Third prize: $500 People’s Choice Award: $500

Student Prize sponsored by VU's Library Services: $500

Venue: VU Footscray
